Sketchers go walk query

Hi there, have just ordered a pair of sketchers go walk for my hols in florida (clogs have 25% off everything just now, code SAVE25), does anyone know if they are really comfy and more importantly - what socks to wear with them?

I bought some and they've been a godsend during my pelvis issues in pregnancy ad they are ridiculously lightweight and spongy, very very comfy. I wear trainer socks, the ones the just cover your toes and heel.

I wear them most days, even to work. I don't wear socks with them often, but I have worn whatever socks I might wear with sneakers.

They hold up very well in the washing machine so I wash them fairly often.

They are the comfiest shoes I own, I don't wear any socks with mine.

I wore Sketchers Go Walk in Florida last year, and they were so comfortable. I didn't wear socks. I just threw the Go Walks in the washing machine when we got home.

They are amazing. You need the low cut trainer socks or they can get smelly. Best trainers ever. I wear them every day.

They are like walking on air, and no socks needed.

isupposeitsverynice · 01/05/2017 10:52

Yeah I don't wear socks with mine, just bung them in the machine when they get a bit whiffy. They dry so quickly, it's amazing.

TWOBANANAS · 01/05/2017 10:54

I wear mine without socks and agree they are like walking on fluffy clouds!!

I find them more comfortable without socks. With socks, I think my feet were slipping around slighty, and that seemed to make my calves ache a bit. Agree that they are great for walking.

I've just got some for work (community HCA) and they are amazing! Ugly as hell, but like walking on a cloud. Great when I'm on a 13 hour shift. I wear mine with sticks, but only because I think they may end up whiffy if I don't having them on so long each day.

steamboatwilly123 · 01/05/2017 10:59

Socks.... Not sticks. That may be a tad uncomfortable! Grin

DarylDixonsAllMine · 01/05/2017 11:00

Sketchers do little slip/socks to go with go walks. I thought mine were comfy with nothing, but with the little sock things, they are amazing!

If you like them, defo go to the skechers shop at the outlets, amazing deals! Urgh jealous!

northerngirl71 · 05/05/2017 23:15

Are they true to size ? Am getting a pair for work (nurse).

isupposeitsverynice · 06/05/2017 09:16

Oh yes I had to size down with these. Normally wear a four but they're very spacious especially when you don't wear socks or anything.
